Great sound, but too brittle
I like the way these sound and feel. But they break too easily. I bought two sets so I'd have a backup, just in case. This was a good thing as I broke both E strings. The first set broke on stage during a performance and the 2nd one broke during a rehearsal. Both had been on my bass for less than a month when they broke. I'm a finger style player with 20+ years on bass. I've never had any brand of strings that consistently break, until now. ... show more

Excellent Strings
These strings really hold up well. Clear sound and they do stay in tune for longer than any other strings I have tried. I haven't had a flat-spotting issue with them either. I've been playing bass since the '80's, for reference.

SIT Foundation Bass Strings
A fellow bassist turned me onto the strings. Very flexible and very comfortable, and they practically never go out of tune - Just like the name says: SIT “stay in tune.” Long lasting with excellent sound also.

Nice Tone and Harmonics
I’ve been a big fan of Dunlop MM SS Super Brights, but I wanted to try something else for a change. I really like these. They have a warm tone with nice lows and clear highs. The further you work up the neck, the harmonics add a wonderful musicality.
